Clarion Inn Surfrider Resort

"Great customer service! Beautiful view of the ocean sunrise & sunsets. Cozy rooms with fire place ambiance, a pool, cable tv & movies to rent. Near-by access to the beach, a restaurant & bar on site with occasional live bands. *I greatly appreciate the bar tender that made an herbal remedy to settle my upset stomach! One complaint: the menus in the rooms need to be updated A.S.A.P. & lable the time frames for breakfast - dinner, also detailed specific foods & ingredients used in each dish to avoid any accidental allergy incidents.. (Ex: "marionberry" topping had cherries in it too. Country gravy includes pork sausage.. Etc..)"

"The ring was nice and I loved the semi private patio areas. The sauna was busy every time I tried to use it and the hot tub needed upgrades and was a better soak without the bubbles running. The menu in the restaurant was limited and has nothing safe for gluten intolerant folks, I would never suggest a celiac person afternoon eating there. The restaurant service was atrocious, they wouldn't take our Togo order until everyone that was dining in was seated... Even when they came in after we did. Stay at the hotel, just eat elsewhere."

"Had a two night stay here. This would've been a 5 star review if not for the water issues we had. The room, bed, and view were nice. The staff was friendly. But the first time I drank the tap water, without looking at it first, I almost gagged. It was horrible. Then I looked and saw it was a light orange color, reminding me of the time I had blood in my urine from a kidney stone. There was a vending machine nearby but I didn't feel like I should have to pay $1.75 for 20oz of drinkable water so I went to the front desk and informed them of my concern. I got the feeling I wasn't the first lodger to do this. I was directed to the bar where the friendly bartender gave me four bottles of Deja Blue. The next day we went into Lincoln City and just bought a gallon of drinking water. Now, the jetted tub. One of the main reasons we booked a "Deluxe" room was the jetted tub. Aside from the fact it was not as large or comfy-looking as the one pictured on their website, the water was barely past lukewarm, even when the "hot" only was running. And it ran so slowly into the tub that by the time it reached the jets the water had turned cold, rendering the thing we'd been most looking forward to useless. The water may have turned us orange anyway, so that's probably okay. Now, the shower. For some reason the shower had plenty of hot water, which was great. The hot/cold indicators on the handle were reversed but we figured it out. However, our particular shower (room 57) had so much water pressure that the (non-adjustable) shower head was shooting out laser needle daggers of water, and every time a laser needle dagger hit my lips, nipples, or manhood, it was very painful. The LND's would bounce off my shoulders and back with such force that it went spraying over the top of the curtain and soaked the whole bathroom. And the lip of the shower floor was so shallow and the curtain was so poorly hung that water just ran out all over the bathroom floor. And there was no place in the shower to set down the soap, shampoo, etc. Nothing. Just flat walls. Had to set everything on the toilet tank and reach out to get it. Maybe spend a few bucks for a cheap plastic shower caddy to hang on the shower head? Just an unpleasant shower experience. This older place definitely needs an update to its plumbing system."

"My bf and I stayed here on Valentine’s and loved it, I was shocked at how nice it was for the price. The girl at the front desk was so friendly and helpful, and they had DVDs you could rent for free or buy popcorn and candy to go with. Really nostalgic. The bar was fun too, great live music and bartender was super sweet. The room was huge- LOVED the ocean view porch and jacuzzi tub. Great find!"

"Our room was clean with two comfy queen beds. The view is superb. We had our dogs with us, and I'm grateful to be able to bring them. The only problem is it's always a bit noisy - out in the parking lot and from guests in rooms on the second floor above. You can hear every foot fall and scrape of a chair leg, and of course, this sets the dogs to barking. We try very hard to be good neighbors and be as quiet as possible, but this hotel makes it hard with noisy distractions. Decently priced in the winter, but over our budget in the summer."
